Garfield: 'Facebook is a terrible thing'

The actor, who plays Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin in the upcoming movie The Social Network, explained his "unusual relationship" with the site while discussing his role.

Garfield told Parade: "I have an unusual relationship with Facebook. I love it, but I hate it at the same time. It takes far too much of my energy and time - time I should be spending working or making myself a better person instead of looking at pictures of my friends having fun at great parties in London. It's a terrible, terrible thing."

The Social Network is released in US cinemas on October 1 and in the UK on October 15.
